The York Institute Purple Dragons breathed some fire into their winlessseason and picked up a victory against the Cannon County Lions. The Lions
had all the momentum coming into the game after their offense found some
confidence in a loss the week before. The Dragons were limping into
Woodbury after suffering many injuries already just four games into the
season. York used a ground game controlling the clock and by half led the
Lions 21-0. The Lions would come out and move the ball on the first
offensive series of the second half as Justin Weaver hauled in a pass for
a touchdown. York would score three more touchdowns before Ryan Jordan
connected with Cody Petro for the only other score for Cannon. York ended
with the win 39-16. Cannon County takes their 0-5 record midway through
the season to Wartrace to meet a 3-2 Cascade Champion team who is coming
off a win against Huntland 39-25. Game time next Friday is 7:00
